Origin) |
|
Reprocessing is the recycling
of uncompounded, unvulcanized synthetic rubber scrap. |
Synthetic
rubber scrap is the material that is being wasted during the different |
finishing phases in the
productionprocess of the rubber polymer, after the actual |
polymerisation.
This means that the scrap is chemically simular and equal to the |
standard synthetic rubber
grades. |
|
The
amount of synthetic rubber scrap is being estimated at 2% of the total
capacity |
of
a synthetic rubber plant. The scrap is being selected by type, homogenized,
dried |
and filtered. |
|
2. Advantages of repro |
|
Reprocessed
rubber is complimentary to the usual prime virgin materials : can be
used |
in
a blend with prime to reduce cost -> customer can improve his
competitiveness |
in the market. |
|
3.Packaging |
|
The material is in bales of 25
kg. |
The bales are wrapped in a
film. |
The bales are put in a wooden
crate of 1000 kg/40 bales |
